      Hi Ivo,

      I am a regular user of your website and I see some Kosovo's location as part of Serbia, something that is very annoying for our citizens.

      When I search for my location "Gjilan, Kosovo", it shows "Gjilan, Serbia", something that is wrong!

      Please fix this problem.

      Best regards,
      Valdrin Shala

        @Valdrin Hi Valdrin, we are sorry for the confusion. However, there is only we can do about it as we adopt the data from Open Street Maps. See following topic: https://community.windy.com/topic/5564/disputed-territories-on-windy

          @valdrin I can not confirm this. When I type Gjilan to search box, it shows two places, both in Kosovo.
          See this picture:

          If you encounter the problem again, please send us the screenshot. However, as @TomSlavkovsky said, our database is based on OpenStreetMap data, so if there is any error, it should be repaired there and we can then import the corrected version.

            @tz The first one sometimes shows as part of Serbia, sometimes as part of Kosovo!
            The second one shows the capital of Kosovo, Prishtina, that is wrong!0_1520527904463_Windy.png 0_1520527991620_Windy2.png

                @ivo Now is showing just "Kosovo".. but is it possible to change the name of the city, from "Gnjilane" to "Gjilan"? Thank you! 0_1521188325710_Gjilan.png

                  @valdrin Hi, it is not possible for us, it is 3rd party database OpenStreetMap. You can discuss it directly with the OpenStreetMap community.
